Location
History
Kazusa-Ōkubo Station opened on 16 May 1928 on the Kominato Railway Company's Kominato Line, situated 32.3 kilometres from the western terminus at Goi in the city of Ichihara, Chiba Prefecture. The station has been unstaffed since 1956 and consists of a single side platform without a station building — only a small shelter, decorated with paintings by local elementary-school pupils. A public lavatory called "Mori no Iriguchi" ("Forest Entrance"), designed by the architectural unit CLIP, was installed at the station in 2014. The stop sits between Tsukizaki and Yōrō-Keikoku on the line's rural southern section.
Notes
The disused Shiratori Elementary School on the hill opposite the platform, closed in a 2013 consolidation, is now used as a venue for the Ichihara Art Mix art festival.
